The dry height of the site of Qasr Ibrim above the Nile river has
resulted in superb preservation of organic material. The textile
collections from the excavations have already become one of the
largest from any site in the middle Nile valley. They are unique as
an unmatched sequence, dating from the Twenty-Fifth Dynasty to the
Late Ottoman Period (750 - 656 BC) and ranging from the domestic
remains of town life and tiny exotic imports of the site s great
years to the cast off garments and furnishings, pitifully mended
and re-mended, from ages of disaster and decline. The important
textiles from the Cathedral Cemetery at Qasr Ibrim, including those
from the burial of Bishop Timotheus, are published here with
detailed descriptions and a photographic record of the most
significant pieces.
